I am sending him to you for the express purpose that you may know about our circumstances and that he may encourage your hearts.

I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are and that he may encourage your hearts,

I have sent him to you for this very purpose— to let you know how we are doing and to encourage you.

I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know how we are and so that he may encourage your hearts.

For I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know about our circumstances and that he may encourage your hearts;

I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that he may know your circumstances and comfort your hearts,

whom I have sent unto you for this very purpose, that ye may know our state, and that he may comfort your hearts;

I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may know how we are and so that he may encourage your hearts.

Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate, and comfort your hearts;

I sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are doing and that he may encourage your hearts.

I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that he may know your circumstances and comfort your hearts,

That’s why I am sending him to you. I want you to know how we are. And I want him to encourage you.

My goal is that their hearts may be encouraged and strengthened. I want them to be joined together in love. Then their understanding will be rich and complete. They will know the mystery of God. That mystery is Christ.

So encourage one another with these words of comfort.

He comforts us in all our troubles. Now we can comfort others when they are in trouble. We ourselves receive comfort from God.

So encourage one another with the hope you have. Build each other up. In fact, that’s what you are doing.

That’s the reason I have sent Timothy to you. He is like a son to me, and I love him. He is faithful in serving the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in serving Christ Jesus. And that agrees with what I teach everywhere in every church.

“ Comfort my people,” says your God.“ Comfort them.

So I want even more to send him to you. Then when you see him again, you will be glad. And I won’t worry so much.

comfort your hearts. May they make you strong in every good thing you do and say.

He has sent me to announce the year when he will set his people free. He wants me to announce the day when he will pay his enemies back. Our God has sent me to comfort all those who are sad.He wants me to help those in Zion who are filled with sorrow. I will put beautiful crowns on their heads in place of ashes. I will anoint them with olive oil to give them joy instead of sorrow. I will give them a spirit of praise in place of a spirit of sadness. They will be like oak trees that are strong and straight. The Lord himself will plant them in the land. That will show how glorious he is.

Now you should forgive him and comfort him. Then he won’t be sad more than he can stand.

You know that we treated each of you as a father treats his own children.

I asked Titus to go to you. And I sent our brother with him. Titus didn’t take advantage of you, did he? Didn’t we walk in the same footsteps by the same Spirit?

We sent our brother Timothy to give you strength and hope in your faith. He works together with us in God’s service to spread the good news about Christ.

That’s the reason I sent someone to find out about your faith. I couldn’t wait any longer. I was afraid that Satan had tempted you in some way. Then our work among you would have been useless.

Brothers and sisters, we are asking you to warn certain people. These people don’t want to work. Instead, they make trouble. We are also asking you to encourage those who have lost hope. Help those who are weak. Be patient with everyone.
